haha, oh i have those ugly spider taillights with the bubble and hate them to the end of the world. the bubble ruins the flow.
First 3 mods... coilovers, swaybars, rear toe arms (stock ones are crappy i think. I suggest full suspension build then performance first, but thats just me.

can you explain the endlink upgrade, or direct me to a thread about it? i have a 2005 with upgraded sway bar but I have no idea about the endlinks.

Basically the endlinks connect the sway bar to the car. No endlinks no need for sway bar. This is what happened to me. I have Hotchkiss sways and was using oem endlinks. The oem endlinks will last about 3-4 months depending on how hard you drive your car. Basically the oem endlinks aren't strong enough for the aftermarket sways. I got powergrids and they are really strong and haven't had a problem. I think spl makes endlinks that are very good too, but I think the powergrids are superior.

Looks or Performance? I say Performance. Get good suspension and Brakes first. Gotta make sure it will handle the power that comes later!
